My little brother has a Wii, but all his games are extremely childish so I've decided to buy some good games, but I haven't found many. Which great Wii games would you recommend? (I prefer RPGs, but I'm open to anything).

The usual suspects.... Zelda, Mario, Metroid.
-World of Goo
-Zach & Wiki
-Call of Duty: World at War
-Madworld

I hear they will be releasing the original Metroid Prime 1 with Wii controls are 480p for Wii at a lower MSRP.... definately worth getting if you don't have the original for the GCN.

Another remake worth getting is RE4, cause it's cheaper and apparently controls better than the GCN original.

Also, here's the Metacritic Wii site, where you can see the list of best Wii games.

The only one in the top 10 that i personally do not recommend is Okami, cause it's a very dirty port that doesn't stay true to the original. If you do want the game get it for the PS2 as the Wii version was 'bastardized' by the studio in charge of porting it.

Cheers

Though it is a little 'childish', I really enjoyed Star Wars Lego! Wickedly addicting game.
